xfwm4 & keyboard shortcuts problem

first, when xfce starts, xfwm4 keyboard shortcuts don't work.
I have two keyboard profile which is the same in window manager settings. When i switch between them, key shortcuts start to work..

this started to happen after i've switched from xfwm4 stable version to svn...

$ xfwm4 --version
    This is xfwm4 version 4.5.0 (revision 26597) for Xfce 4.5.0svn
    Released under the terms of the GNU General Public License.
    Compiled against GTK+-2.12.7, using GTK+-2.12.7.

    Build configuration and supported features:
    - Startup notification support:                 No
    - XSync support:                                Yes
    - Render support:                               Yes
    - Xrandr support:                               Yes
    - Embedded compositor:                          No
    - KDE systray proxy (deprecated):               No

so, what's the problem? how can i solve this?

Re: xfwm4 & keyboard shortcuts problem

Same here with

xfwm4 --version
        This is xfwm4 version 4.4.3 (revision 28474) for Xfce 4.4.3
        Released under the terms of the GNU General Public License.
        Compiled against GTK+-2.12.11, using GTK+-2.12.11.

        Build configuration and supported features:
        - Startup notification support:                 Yes
        - XSync support:                                Yes
        - Render support:                               Yes
        - Xrandr support:                               Yes
        - Embedded compositor:                          Yes
        - KDE systray proxy (deprecated):               No

Annoying... But if there were a way to do from the commandline what the window manager settings MCS is doing, I could just run that on startup. Is there such a way?

Re: xfwm4 & keyboard shortcuts problem

Problem went away. It might have had to do with not having my keymap set up correctly.
